1176: Chapter 188: Iconic Scene_3 1176: Chapter 188: Iconic Scene_3 After a brief hesitation, everyone rushed out to express their determination.
Today’s eting was a military council and the decisions made were naturally military orders; there was no foundation for bargaining.
As for the commands announced by Hudson himself, whether they conford to procedures or possessed legal binding force was unimportant.
In the end, they all had to be executed.
Everyone was young, and the fire of youth had not yet extinguished.
The beginning traces of opulence brought from the outside had yet to cloud everyone’s judgnt.
Each one’s attitude was very proper, leaving Hudson without the will to continue his outburst.
It must be said that the world is still full of wise individuals; those fools who rely on their noble birth to openly defy leadership are, after all, a tiny minority.
Making a fuss is useless; a Major Noble would not oppose the Kingdom Marshal for the sake of a wayward scion.
As long as one doesn’t have the disposition to attract hatred, such orders, which do not involve the core interests of the people, will be executed by everyone.
The difference lies only in the degree of importance placed upon them.
Perhaps people do not care whether the Nobles in their domain observe the rules, but they definitely care about their own positions.
The position of Prefectural Governor is not a trifling matter—for them to be able to sit here in a eting, their families have invested significant political resources.
If this investnt were to be wasted, a stern peeling of skin would be unavoidable upon returning ho.
“Well then, since you all realize the problem.
Today, I will give everyone so face and will not point fingers for the ti being.
I don’t care how you implent the specifics, anyway, I only look at the final results.
If you can’t control your subordinates, then go ho and take care of your children as early as possible!
Now, let’s move on to the next topic, the expansion of Reserve training.
The Kingdom has done sothing similar before; I trust you all have an impression of it.
This ti it will be quite similar, except that the group undergoing training is sowhat larger.
Considering the special circumstances in the Near East, all citizens must undergo essential combat training.
Training content will vary, and aside from combat experience, everyone must also learn fortification and scorched earth tactics.
To put it simply, this includes training on how to quickly herd livestock into the city when facing an invasion by Orcs, and how to hastily harvest crops in the shortest ti possible.
During the evacuation process, it’s essential to ensure the safety of property and personnel, while not leaving any food or supplies for the enemy.
…”
During Hudson’s speech, copies of the “Fortification and Scorched Earth Plan” had also been distributed to the group of Prefectural Governors.
The actual effect still needs to be tested in real combat situations, but mobilizing the people for several training sessions will undoubtedly be better than executing hastily without any experience.
The eting concluded within a day, manifesting “efficiency” in the most vivid manner possible.
Hudson did not ask everyone to make plans, nor did he demand various parties to present training proposals, relying entirely on everyone’s initiative.
This was also a characteristic of the era.
In an era where general knowledge levels were not high, being able to carry out an order was already comndable—demanding more would only make things worse.
If a problem arises, it can be addressed later based on the actual situation.
In any case, as long as actions are being taken, encountering problems is just a matter of ti.
…
“Duke, Governor Piers has sent you a letter.”
The ssage arrived just as the eting had ended.
Hudson casually opened the letter and his face turned green.
His conscience was clear; when had he ever spread “heritage knowledge” around?
Even if he had such a thought in mind, he hadn’t acted on it!
At most, he had a tiny bit of responsibility.
If responsibilities were divided by size, he would have just a few percent at most.
It’s nothing more than proposing a plan; across the Continent, countless bizarre proposals are generated every day.
It just so happened that Hudson’s luck favored him, and the plan he proposed was adopted by the Moxi People, earning him a small creative fee.
Carrying the bla is out of the question.
If it were just the spread of heritage knowledge in the Southeastern Province, Hudson could barely handle it, but this ti it was being sold off across the Continent.
Who knows how many people the Moxi Duchy has sold it to—this sort of event that affects the Continent’s pattern is not sothing Hudson can shoulder.
Crumpling the letter into a ball, Hudson imdiately started to write a reply.
He definitely had to push away any responsibility cleanly, and without selling out the Moxi Duchy, he could only let those Nobles who had died in the war take the bla.
Normally, the heritage knowledge of the major Clans is encrypted, but there are always exceptions.
For example, if a younger generation is learning, they are using the genuine article.
Generally, it is passed down orally by elders, but there are the occasional odd ones out who like to record things on paper.
If by chance soone got hold of these, it’s entirely possible.
After all, the Cultivation thods of those little Nobles in the Southeast is common and overabundant.
Besides being highly adaptable and easy to learn, there’s basically no other advantage.
Investigating this is a dead end.
Nobles in possession of these Cultivation thods are a di a dozen.
As for whether Governor Piers believes it or not, that’s no longer Hudson’s concern.
Since he hadn’t done anything, there’s no way evidence could be found no matter where one searched.
Deep down, Hudson was still secretly pleased.
The spread of heritage knowledge had begun to fernt, and those who acquired the heritage were everywhere.
With a base established among the lower ranks, what follows is waiting for the seeds to take root and sprout.
The extent of the side effects is, for now, set aside; at the very least, in the short term, this will significantly enhance the strength of the Kingdom.
Perhaps the next ti there’s an outbreak, it could bring a great surprise to the Orcs.
After all, the breakthrough of each realm marks a drastic change in power.
One individual is insignificant, but a transformation among a group is extraordinary.
Especially that troop of pure cultivators in the Kingdom, if the cultivation level of everyone advances, the increase in strength could be several tis greater.
If there is another conflict with the Main Army of Orcs, they would undoubtedly be able to overwhelm the Orcs right from the start.
Hudson was already looking forward to witnessing that stirring scene.
